中央情報局的眼睛比特幣是付款和情報的戰略工具

中央情報局副主任邁克爾·傑伊利斯（Michael Jayellis）確認，該機構將比特幣和其他加密貨幣視為投機資產，而且是運營工具。

The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) is closely monitoring Bitcoin (BTC) and other cryptocurrencies as strategic tools for facilitating payments and gathering intelligence, especially in tracking the activity of terrorist groups, drug cartels, and hostile regimes, according to remarks by CIA Deputy Director Michael Jayellis.

根據CIA副總監Michael Jayellis的講話，中央情報機構（CIA）正在密切監視比特幣（BTC）和其他加密貨幣作為促進付款和收集情報的戰略工具，尤其是在跟踪恐怖組織，毒品卡特爾和敵對政權的活動時，尤其是在跟踪恐怖組織的活動時。

In an interview with investor Anthony Pompliano, Jayellis discussed how the agency views digital assets not just as speculative investments but also operational tools in its broader operations.

在接受投資者Anthony Pompliano的採訪中，Jayellis討論了該機構如何將數字資產視為投機性投資，而且在其更廣泛的運營中運營工具。

Contrary to popular opinion, Jayellis emphasized that BTC is not anonymous, but pseudonymous—making it possible to follow the trail and identify the users, especially when there is an initial point of contact.

與大眾意見相反，Jayellis強調BTC不是匿名的，而是假名 - 可以沿著步道識別用戶，尤其是在有初始聯繫點時。

“We can follow that chain and tie it back to the bad actors that we’re tracking,” Jayellis said.

傑伊利斯說：“我們可以遵循該鏈條，並將其與我們追踪的壞演員聯繫起來。”

He added that the CIA is working closely with relevant authorities to monitor any crypto-related activity by terrorist groups, drug cartels, or hostile foreign regimes.

他補充說，中央情報局正在與相關當局緊密合作，以監視恐怖組織，毒品卡特爾或敵對的外國政權的任何與加密相關的活動。

Strategic Competition and Intelligence Tools

戰略競爭和情報工具

Positioning Bitcoin within a broader landscape of technological competition, especially with adversaries like China, Jayellis stated that the CIA is working to ensure the U.S. remains a global leader in the crypto sphere and uses blockchain intelligence tools to both monitor adversaries and gather critical data.

在更廣泛的技術競爭環境中，尤其是在像中國這樣的對手中，將比特幣定位在更廣泛的景觀中，傑伊利斯表示，中央情報局正在努力確保美國仍然是加密貨幣領域的全球領導者，並使用區塊鏈情報工具來監視對手並收集關鍵數據。

“We’re trying to make sure that the U.S. remains competitive in that technological landscape and that we’re able to use that technology to collect intelligence on foreign powers and to disrupt their activity,” he said.

他說：“我們正在努力確保美國在該技術領域保持競爭力，並且我們能夠利用該技術來收集外國大國的情報並破壞其活動。”

Jayellis highlighted that cryptocurrency presents a two-fold benefit: it can be leveraged for intelligence gathering and used to disrupt illicit financial networks.

傑伊利斯（Jayellis）強調，加密貨幣為情報收集提供了兩個方面的好處：它可以利用它來破壞非法財務網絡。

“Bitcoin is here to stay,” he remarked, noting the growing institutional adoption, which he said is a positive trend that began with the Trump administration.

他說：“比特幣將留在這裡。

Cryptocurrency and National Security Priorities

加密貨幣和國家安全優先事項

Jayellis also linked the CIA’s focus on crypto to a broader national agenda: the dismantling of international cartels. He said the agency was fully aligned with President Trump’s directive to eliminate cartel threats and that crypto intelligence would play a role in achieving that goal.

Jayellis還將中央情報局對加密貨幣的關注與更廣泛的國家議程聯繫起來：拆除國際卡特爾。他說，該機構完全與特朗普總統取消卡特爾威脅的指示完全保持一致，而加密情報將在實現這一目標中發揮作用。

Describing cartel activity as a global threat in the same vein as terrorism, Jayellis called for a unified government effort to close any gaps between intelligence and law enforcement.

傑伊利斯（Jayellis）將卡特爾活動描述為與恐怖主義相同的全球威脅，呼籲政府努力彌合情報與執法部門之間的任何差距。

He concluded by summarizing the CIA’s approach: “We’re going to use digital assets, we’re going to use blockchain surveillance to try and help disrupt those cartels and return the illicit proceeds.”

他總結了中央情報局的方法來總結：“我們將使用數字資產，我們將使用區塊鏈監視來嘗試破壞這些卡特爾並返回非法收益。”
